Intellectual property concerns arise frequently in the cloud, where software, data, and designs may involve multiple stakeholders. This episode explores licensing models, use of open-source software (OSS), and patent issues that affect cloud adoption. We highlight why organizations must track licensing terms carefully and ensure OSS use complies with contractual and legal requirements.

The CCSP exam may test your understanding of intellectual property by presenting scenarios where misuse of OSS or unclear ownership leads to risk. By mastering IP considerations, you’ll be able to navigate one of the less technical but equally critical aspects of cloud governance. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
